Founded in 1869 by a group of area residents whose names are still on file in Hackensack. Founding fathers include prominent Northern Valley people: Blauvelt, Demarest, Haring, and LaRoche. Sanctuary building completed in 1869; total cost $2,430 with an $850 down payment. Originally on Summit Street but moved to its present location. Imagine this stately wooden church moving slowly up Broadway drawn by horses! The front exterior of the church is a carpenter Gothic Church. Note the gables with cut tracing. It is called Barge Board or a Verge Board. The type of glass in the sanctuary windows is Grisaille, and it is historic glass. Many stained glass windows from the Middle Ages use this style. The floral print on the border is called rinceau. The church buildings include the landmark sanctuary building, the church house, the Christian Education Building, and a 4 bedroom manse. Norwood Public School rented space in the Christian Education Building for a few years in the 1960s while the school was undergoing a large expansion.

Beloved Church Family,

With tender hearts and deep gratitude for a life faithfully lived, we share the news that Judy, our dear sister in Christ and a devoted servant of this church, has entered her eternal rest in the Lord.

Judy served among us with quiet strength, steadfast love, and a heart that always sought to glorify God. Whether through her acts of kindness, her willingness to help, or her faithful presence in worship and caring ministry, she blessed our congregation in ways that will not be forgotten.

As we grieve her passing, we also give thanks for the promise of our faith—that Judy is now held in the everlasting arms of God, welcomed into the joy and peace of her Savior. Please keep Jenny and her family in your prayers, so that the comfort of Christ and the companionship of the Holy Spirit may surround them in the days ahead.

May the God of all compassion be near to us as we remember Judy with love and gratitude.

In Christ,
Pastor Timothy

In the days following the State of the Union, join the Office of Public Witness for a nonpartisan Prayer Service. In a time of deep division and the ongoing war with Iran, we gather to lament violence, pray for our leaders and neighbors, and seek a just peace among nations. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by our Reformed call to public witness, we come not as citizens of one country, but as disciples whose hope is in God alone. All are welcome. Come pray, seek peace, and be renewed as instruments of Christ’s love.
